XML API Reference

Overview

The XML API Reference provides information about the XML API specification and provides information about all of the packages that define the functions on various NFM-P domains that an OSS application can access. The XML API Reference includes the following:

• package descriptions

• object/class property values and descriptions

• UML inheritance drawings

• general methods and types

• deprecated packages, properties, methods, classes, and enumerations

• lists of supported NEs and NE releases

• NE-specific information about supported properties per NE release

Package, class, type, UML inheritance diagrams, property descriptions, and value details are presented on HTML pages and include the following:

• package list—displays the packages that are available to the XML interface (upper left panel)

• class list—displays the classes, structs, and types that are defined for each package (lower left panel)

• class details—contains information about each class inheritance, relationships, class type, properties, methods, and supported NE types and releases (right panel)

Deprecated properties, general methods/types, and supported products are all available from the upper left panel of the XML API Reference. See To view deprecated schema items , To view the general methods and types , and To view the supported device types for more information.

The XML API Reference is downloadable from the Documentation Center.
